well that's easy, how much is the value of someone kicking you very hard in the balls without them being permanently damaged?

if you live another 50 years, this amounts to roughly $9000 per kick in the balls. even factoring the randomness of the kick (its more hurtful since you can't really prepare yourself against it), i think many people would take $9000 for a kick in the balls, provided they know there won't be permanent damage.

and that's if EACH KICK gives you $9000. If you get the $500million up front, it's a really easy decision, because the rest of your life you can spend having so much fun that it easily outweighs the inconvenience of the ball-kicking, which you would probably get used to after a few years.

That clip literally made my balls hurt. However, if this video is anything to go by, it would be stupid not to take the money.

No way.

It's not just about the pain of being kicked in the balls, it's about the stress that comes with "I could be kicked in the balls at any moment and there's nothing I can do about it".

Until you've had all 3 kicks for the day (and therefore know there's nothing else coming), you
- can't relax
- can't do any activity that depends on being uninterrupted
- can't do anything that would be dangerous if you got kicked (swimming, running, walking down stairs, driving, etc)

If instead the deal was "every day you get a kick in the balls as soon as you wake up, and must take another 2 kicks in the balls during the day at times of your choosing" then I'd be all over that. As it is.... no.
